In a recent CNBC <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://youtu.be/Q_c2zOl5lbc?si=7fyOpPnw_0_PtoZZ" target="_blank">interview</a>, the Bitwise CIO underscored the growing popularity of Bitcoin ETFs amid all kinds of investors. He noted that initially retail investors stepped in while hedge funds and other institutional investors are now lining up for a spot in the Bitcoin ETF frenzy.
Moreover, Hogan highlighted that they are expecting to “unlock” major wealth management platforms like Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo soon, which would mark a massive milestone for these ETFs. In addition, the Bitwise CIO emphasized that they have been witnessing corporates line up to get access to the Bitcoin exchange-traded funds. Furthermore, to reaffirm Bitcoin ETF’s robust growth, he said, “A lot of flood gates are open.”
When asked about how many wirehouses have adopted <a href="https://coingape.com/mudrex-offer-us-bitcoin-etf-retail-institutional-investors-india/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin ETFs</a>, Hogan stated that currently they’re offering unsolicited investment facilities. This means that if their clients request to invest in a BTC ETF, only then these wirehouses would facilitate that. However, Hogan believes that these wirehouses would offer solicited services for the Bitcoin ETFs in near future.
Such a move would provide greater exposure to Bitcoin funds. Moreover, Hogan cited historical trends wherein such exposure leads to a massive influx, fostering the growth of these ETFs. Furthermore, the Bitwise CIO connected the Bitcoin price rally to the surge in BTC exposure via ETFs.
He noted that Bitcoin is currently in the “price discovery phase” and it can be largely attributed to the ETFs. Hogan stated that previously, only a fraction of the investment arena invested in crypto or Bitcoin, however, the advent of BTC ETFs has turned the tables.
